A friend asked me to make him a back scratcher out of a small deer rack that he had. The 3 point side feels really good in your hand and the 2 point side makes a great scratcher. I turned a piece of maple on the legacy ornamental lathie to look like a piece of rope and finished sanding it on my small latide. I inserted a lag in each end of the maple and drilled the horn using epxoy to bond them together. Total lenigh is 18”.

A friend who has a dart arcade game asked me to design and make a shelf that would hold 12 darts and extra tips.

The little drawer on the front side is opened by inserting your finger in the hole on the bottom and pushing it out. Finshed with 3 coats of laqure. The project is 18” wide 8” tall and 5” deep.
